Any one have the sauce recipe for Famous Dave's 'sweet and zesty' bbq sauce?

Question

Or one that is very similar?

Answer 1

try this one, it is great!

Beer and Molasses BBQ Glaze:

2 1/2 cups chili sauce

1 1/2 cups molasses

1 1/2 cups light beer

4 tablespoons Dijon mustard

4 tablespoon chili powder

1 tablespoons + 3/4 teaspoon soy sauce

2 1/2 tablespoons crystal hot Louisiana sauce

5 tablespoons lemon juice

1 1/3 tablespoons liquid smoke

Combine all ingredients in sauce pot.  Bring to a boil, then simmer 1 hour until reduced by 1/3 of the original volume. Cool completely before use.

or try this one if you like it sweeter:

1 (14-ounce) bottle ketchup

1/2 cup water

2 teaspoons molasses

2 teaspoons Creole or whole grain mustard

2 teaspoons chopped garlic

1/4 cup chopped onions

2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar

Dash hot pepper sauce

Dash Worcestershire sauce

Pinch salt

Pinch cayenne

2 teaspoons peeled and grated fresh ginger

Pinch freshly ground black pepper

In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, combine all of the ingredients. Process until smooth, about 15 seconds. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula. Pulse 2 or 3 times. Refrigerate overnight before using.

Want something a little more spicy:

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 1/2 cups finely chopped onions

6 cloves garlic, finely chopped

2 1/4 teaspoons sweet paprika

2 teaspoons bayou blast, recipe follows

2 teaspoons dry mustard

1 1/4 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste

1 1/2 cups water

3/4 cup cider vinegar

6 tablespoons dark brown sugar

3 1/2  teaspoons liquid hickory smoke



In a medium non-reactive saucepan set over medium-high heat, add the butter and, when melted, add the onions and cook until they are very soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika, Bayou blast, ground mustard, salt, crushed red pepper, black pepper, and cayenne pepper and cook for 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes, or until the tomato paste begins to brown. Add the water, cider vinegar, and dark brown sugar, and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the sauce has thickened and the flavors have come together, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Set aside to cool before using. The sauce may be made up to 1 week in advance and refrigerated in an airtight, non-reactive container.

Bayou blast:

2 1/2 tablespoons paprika

2 tablespoons salt

2 tablespoons garlic powder

1 tablespoon black pepper

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1 tablespoon dried thyme

all are very good and pretty easy to make.
